Workshop Description

Are you interested in learning or improving your approach and reduction of long bone fractures? Are you interested in learning simple techniques designed for the general practitioner to stabilize the most commonly fractures seen in dogs and cats? This laboratory is the one for you! 
 
The participant will learn reliable techniques and valuable practical tips useful in repairing simple and more challenging comminuted fractures of the long bones. New implant designs have made fracture repair much simpler and more affordable. In addition, postoperative management of patients has also been simplified and complications are rare if the principles of fracture repair are followed. This course will familiarize participants with fracture repair techniques including IM pin/cerclage, tension band, External Skeletal Fixation (ESF), through lecture and clinical case presentations. Following lecture and case review, participants will repair fractures on plastic bone models and cadavers. Postoperative radiographs will be taken to evaluate the participants' repair technique. 

Workshop Objectives

  • Diagnose, classify and make treatment plans for fractures of the long bones of the dog and cat
